The Kamiki family, after years of effort, finally moves into their dream home, only to experience strange occurrences. Five out of seven family members die under mysterious circumstances, leaving only the grandmother with dementia and her teenage grandson. They eventually realize that the vengeful spirit of a girl named “Sayuri”, who lived there ten years ago, is behind the tragedies. Now, it's their turn to prepare for a fierce fight for survival.
In the film House of Sayuri, most of the family dies within the first 50 minutes. So, what fills the remaining 58 minutes? What starts as a typical haunted house horror takes a completely unexpected turn, diverging from the norm in surprising ways. Based on OSHIKIRI Rensuke's manga of the same name, the film adaptation adds a touch of dark humor, attempting to avoid depicting the horrific domestic violence and the obsession with family/home solely as a dark abyss. This unique approach is noteworthy.
